The apes sure are lucky that the most advanced don’t act like them

They would be extinct

Wed, 29 Feb 2012 06:49:28 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5544144It is unfortunate but I will place the blame on the dirty effing muzzos and their death cult

So I have no problem with aggrieved families burning down a mosk or two, maybe massacring a few

Judging by the actions of the muzzos worldwide they should have no problem with this since it is retaliation for murder which is worse than burning a porno

Wed, 29 Feb 2012 03:25:05 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5542935I’m much more concerned that we may soon be providing air cover for Al Queda (or however you spell the name of that latent homosexual death cult) then whether or not a tiny bit of my cousin may have ended up in a landfill.

We are bigger than this people. Let the muslims piss and moan about imagined slights to their delicate sensibilities. A huge effort was made to provide dignity to the remains of these people.

“Mr. Miller oversaw the retrieval, identification, storage and return of all human remains from the Flight 93 crash site in Stonycreek Township near Shanksville on Sept. 11, 2001. All identified remains of passengers and crew were returned to the families, he said, and those that could not be identified were put in three caskets and buried on Sept. 12, 2011 at the Flight 93 National Memorial.”

The remains were cremated. I assume this means handled with dignity, although the artical doen’t say. Not sure how I feel about this. I think there may be more details we are not privy to.

Just so you know. The remains of my brother,a 6′ white male of east european Jewish heritage were misidentified as a female hispanic, were sent to the county incinerator with the days road kill. We found out 12 years later. His killer walks among us.

It’s OK though. It was unintentional.

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 23:38:44 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5541053I am all for treating the human remains with respect. But as I have read on Dear Abby many times, funerals (and by extention, the respectful treatment of remains) are for the living. Yes, lets show respect for the dead. Yes, lets spend money to bring our dead soldiers home and bury them with honor. But lets not overblow it either, Tina. My life is sacred. My soul is sacred. But I won’t complain if my remains end up a pile of ash in a landfill. I’ll have better things to be doing in the Afterlife.

At least they got all who died in Iraq back and identified with no forever MIA. They can’t say that about Vietnam.

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 23:28:18 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5540999For weeks after the attacks, workers were combing through the Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island, where the material cleared from Ground Zero was taken, for human remains. They found a lot of them, but many remains are probably still there. This story isn’t good news, but what’s really important is the heinous actions that led to the deaths of these people and stopping those who would love to hit us like that again.

Who doesn’t?

But no. Turns out that these were only human bodies. So, no. It treating them with disrespect doesn’t meet the media standard for justifying murderous rampages.

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 22:59:52 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5540806While I certainly don’t agree with the idea of putting them in a landfill, I think most people don’t realize what does happen at a cremation.
I know that what is left of an entire body after cremation is very small, usually less than 6 pounds. What is left of the cremated body is some bone fragments which are run through a pulverizer to grind them to ash, the rest has gone up in heat/smoke/vapor into the air. I would assume this was done at the first cremation and then they did the second incineration.
I know people who do cremations and they will admit they can’t guarantee all the remains make it to the funeral because of the size of the particles, and that most likely a very small part of someone’s remains are left in the crematory. But they do the best they can. If they do find anything such as missed metal from a ring they may bury these mixed remains in a cemetery. When the lining bricks are replaced periodically in the crematory though I wonder what is done with those?

Yes, this was a very sad mistake but it certainly doesn’t sound as if disrespect was some kind of a driving force behind it.

Every last piece of debris from WTC was mechanically sifted and picked through in a 7 month period of time. At first it was under the jurisdiction and oversight of NY Harbor and Terminal District/State of NY until the Feds started paying the bills then the FBI took over. It was still the same contractor who performed the work, Garner Environmental, Deer Park, TX (they got the work because they had responded to several situations in NYC faster than locals had in the past).

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 22:51:03 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5540736Don’t think many people are casting aspersions on those who recovered remains…I don’t think those people were the ones who made the decision to throw human remains in landfills. That’s the issue. As Soulglo said above, why not a cemetery?? No one would think that there is any conceivable way, at this point, to identify remains, and further, no one expected every speck to be recovered from the site. We all know how devastating the attacks were on human bodies. Again, there’s a middle ground here, between just basically throwing human remains away in the dump, and running DNA tests on such small fragments to try to identify them.

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 22:37:05 +0000http://hotair.com/?p=182308#comment-5540635As someone who was at the Pentagon everyday working on the Recovery and Reconstruction, I can tell you that there would have been no way to recover every piece of human remains. The debris was piled as far as they eye could see in North Parking. Cadaver dogs (I naively thought they were bomb sniffing dogs until I found out what they were really doing. The dogs and handlers walked the piles (and the crash site) for weeks…until the area was turned over to the Renovation Office from FBI custody. The rubble was still smouldering for days after…filled with concrete, wood, furniture…everything imaginable.
To say that those working in the Recovery did not do everything in their power to respectively collect and document every piece of human remains is dishonest.

And then you can make a big plaque saying “Unknown Soldiers” or “Unknown 9/11 Victims”. It really makes me mad that these people can’t figure this stuff out.
